Researchers at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science & Technology have built a humanoid robot called Pibot that can pilot a jet — without having to make any major modifications to the cockpit.
Instead of thumbing through a printed-out manual, Pibot can simply memorize documentation using — what else? — large language models. "Pibot is a humanoid robot that can fly an aeroplane just like a human pilot by manipulating all the single controls in the cockpit, which is designed for humans," David Shim, an associate professor of electrical engineering at KAIST, told"Humans can fly many aeroplanes, but they do have these habits built into them," he added. "So when they try to convert to different aeroplanes they have to take another qualification.
"With the pilot robot, if we teach individual aeroplane configuration, then you can fly the aeroplane by simply clicking the aeroplane's type," Shim explained.
